Israel and Judah

I found this in my drafts, so apparently I didn’t post it. OOPS!!

The kingdoms of Israel and Judah were so different, but also the same. In this essay, I am going to compare and contrast the two kingdoms. One paragraph will compare them, the other one will contrast.

One reason why Israel and Judah were the same is that they both had bad kings. Yes, I know not all of Judah’s kings were bad, but they still had bad ones. Another reason is that both kingdoms fell away from worshiping God at some point. I’m sure there are more things that are the same about them, but I can’t think of anything else, so on with the next paragraph!

I can think of a lot of things that make the kingdoms different, so here we go.  Both kingdoms fell in different time periods. Judah in 782 B.C., and Israel in 586 B.C. Judah also had some righteous kings, while Israel didn’t have any good kings. Also, the people who conquered Israel and Judah are different. 

Those are just a few things I noticed from the study at this point in history. I hope it was worth your time reading. Have a wonderful day!
